// Package main provides a Go program for managing snapshots of Firecracker microVMs. | ||
// The program utilizes the Firecracker Go SDK for creating and loading snapshots, | ||
// and it demonstrates how to establish SSH connections to interact with microVMs. | ||
// Comments are provided to explain each function's purpose and usage. | ||
|
||
// In this program, a "snapshot" refers to a point-in-time copy of the state of a Firecracker microVM. | ||
// Snapshots capture the complete memory and state of the microVM, allowing users to save and restore its exact configuration and execution context. | ||
// They enable quick deployment and management of microVM instances with pre-defined configurations and states, which is useful for testing, development, and deployment scenarios. | ||

Most of the code here is self-explanatory and/or understandable with a quick search. I would prefer to have more readable code, than annotate every line of code with comments.
